I’ve been productive this weekend. I’ve made about 20 new pieces. I realized that I needed to get my butt in gear since I have less than a month now until the show; and since each piece takes ten minutes (minimum) to make and I need to have about 200 pieces, well, you do the math.

I wonder… are the designers of ugly fashion all laughing when they come up with their designs? Is this a big joke? I know – they want to see how many people will actually buy their crap, right? And they’re laughing when people actually do purchase the ugly stuff. The clueless customer says, “It’s new, so it must be in style.”

WRONG. No. Please. No. Seriously.

If I were a designer of any sort, I would never, ever, ever design something so horribly wrong just because there are people out there that will buy it. As a designer, you are also a trend-setter, and therefore should be making the people of the world more beautiful. You should not be lowering your standards to fit the tastes of the tasteless just to make a buck. Come ON!
